[Q] dual core or quad core really? - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can get the galaxy tab 10.1 for like $250. Its got dual core and I can ics on it. The quad core tablets are $400 plus. Is it worth it for quad core for surfing the web checking email and watching movies YouTube etc? Will things be smooth on ics like they are on quad core?

For that kind of use, it doesn't make any difference whatsoever if the CPU is dual or quad core. A bigger screen would be much more useful for you IMHO.

How has ics. Been on the tab 2 generally with the dual core? I have used it on the Toshiba excite quad core and its smooth as silk....

From Tegra2 to Tegra3

Just as we get use to the Tegra 2 now comes the Tegra 3 quad core processor...

Read it -- it will be a beast!
Let's hope we see it in some tablets quicker than it took for the Tegra2 to catch on though...
Makes me sorry that I sold my NVIDIA stock

First quad core phone revealed

The first quadcore phone
That's awesome but i think it might a little before they will have a large selection of apps to optimize the phone. Can't wait for a Samsung quad core, i love samsung phones.

What do you really need Quad Core for? Dual core is a step up from Single but is it really necessary to have a Quad Core phone?
htc boooooooooooo
you don't want a faster phone... do you have a super computer in your pocket? or dual core is good enough, because you don't think apps or user demands are never going to increase?

Ultimate specs on neXus⁴. So what's the future like...

Quad core
2 GB RAM
4.7" Screen
1.5 GHZ Qualcomm S4 Processor
These are, IMHO, the most advanced specs in any phone (not considering Samsung cause I just hate it).
But even some of the most advanced phones out there don't have all in one. So what's it going to be like from here on...?
Also, do u think the competition is jealous of it? Namely the iDevices and the Lumias alike...?

The future will be z
4.9" or 5" 1080p displays
1.5 or 2ghz dual core A15 bases CPU
Or push to 6 core 1.2ghz A9 based CPU (highly unlikely)
Retarted large battery (2500mah-4000)
2GB RAM

[Q] no 4 inch phone with hd screen and quad core processor

i was just wondering why there are no 4 inch phones with quad core processor n hd screen coz i personally don't like 5 inch phones at all as they are too big to carry.
is there a hardware constraint involved in the same.??
Hey, You can find any phone on gsmarena search page.
Just choose relevant parameters.

[Q] Android: Exynos 5250 (A15 dual core) vs Rk3188 (A9 quad core)

I was going to buy a tablet for uni, and as i have some experience with computers i decided to compare the tablets and buy which was best for me, however i realized I'm a complete greenhorn in terms of phone/tablet hardware.
I found that these two processor was the ones i had to pick from:
Samsung Exynos 5250 - A15 Dual core @ 2 Ghz
Has an excellent GPU T-604
Rockwell Rk3188 - A9 Quad core @ 1.8 GHz
Has an decent GPU Mali 400
I know that the Exynos has a MUCH better GPU and has the newer A15 architecture, clocked at higher speed but is a dual core.
But the Rockwell is a quad core but has a older A9 architure and has the worse GPU.
I tried to search for a comparison but came nil because I was comparing between different release date/architecture.
Could you guys people explain to this newbie the advantages and disadvantages of each processor, and which one i should pick?
Which Processor is better? why is it better? Better by how much?
Which processor would be better at Nds emulation? I know android nds emulator support multicore and GPU support
Rk3188 (quad core) vs exynos (better GPU, architechture)
Which one has the lower battery consumption?
Thank you for your time.
at first is it Rockchip RK3188 , not Rockwell .. 2nd, A15 is faster than A9 even A9 is in A9 quad core state, for better compatibility support for apps and games .. take exynos chip but the price is hinger than rockchip RK3188 tablet... battery comsumption are vary depnds actual MAH on the tablet + how the user usage on it's tablet + version ROM that perform
Tablet is not only about processor, build quality, screen, speakers - its a package.
As you did not mention exact models under comparison, it depends on what you look for and budget.
For price/quality top score, you can't go wrong with one of Cube u9GTV (quad) tablets :
Retina, aluminum body, IPS, HDMI, stereo speakers and 9+ hours of battery.
I have one myself, and I used the dual core (old model) for a year, so I know they last well and are robust.
One of issues to consider is that having ADB over USB to Cube tablets is sometimes a mess, so I'm using ADB over IP to debug things, which might be not the best solution for a developer.
Best luck with your choice!
